Hello,

Question:

Keisha solved the following equation:

4x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)

Which step has an incorrect justification? (Make sure to type only the number of the step into the blank: 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5)

Correct Solution:

x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)

4x + −2x + 8 = (6) (x) + (6) (4) (Distribute)

4x + −2x + 8 = 6x + 24

(4x + −2x) + (8) = 6x + 24 (Combine Like Terms)

2x + 8 = 6x + 24

2x + 8 = 6x + 24

Subtract 6x from both sides.

2x + 8 − 6x = 6x + 24 − 6x

−4x + 8 = 24

Subtract 8 from both sides.

−4x + 8 − 8 = 24 − 8

−4x = 16

-4 x -4 = 16

x = -4

Answer:

Where keisha went wrong was forgeting to subtract 6x to both sides.

Incorrrect step is #3

The solution to the equation is correct.

on the line - 4x + 8 = 24 to the next line

- 4x = 16

4 should be Subtraction property of equality and not addition property of equality

Find the area of each shaded segment in nearest tenth.
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Denote the center of circle as O, the 2 endpoints of shaded segment as AB, then we have:

section OAB area = pi x radius^2 x (120/360) = pi x 6^2 x (1/3) = 37.7 (cm2)

Considering triangle OAB, we have OA = OB = radius, angle AOB = 120 deg. Denote OH as the height of triangle. H lies on AB.

=> Applying cosine and sine theorem in right triangle AHO:

OH = OA x cos 60 = 6 x (1/2) = 3 (cm)

AH = OA x sin 60 = 6 x (sqrt3)/2 = 5.2 (cm)

=> triangle AOB area:

A = triangle AOH area x 2

   = AH x OH x (1/2) x 2 = 3 x 5.2 x (1/2) x 2 = 15.6 (cm2)

=> shaded segment area = section OAB area - triangle AOB

                                          = 37.7 - 15.6 = ~21.1 (cm2)

Hope this helps!

:)
